Chapter 349 [Aoki's Temptation!] First Update!
The cigarette case is a regular Seven Star Everything, 5 mg.
The blue and box are printed in bright green Roman letters, and of course, like other brands of cigarettes, they are printed with the words "smoking is bad for health" that is not easily detected.
"I heard that Miyane-san works in the literary editorial department of 'Jukensha', so you must know Ryiichiro Imamura!"
Aoki wiped his fingers on the wet towel after tapping on the cigarette case, and stared at the young man called "Miyane Masaji" opposite, waiting for the other party's answer.
"Imamura-san?ah, yes, yes, he's my former boss......"
"That's it...... Ah, I'm sorry, but I have to specify the contents when I make a reservation, so I've already ordered the food, and the restaurant will deliver it in a moment. β¦β¦ Imamura ...... Uh, Imamura-san is a very nice guy......"
"Yes, I, I have been taken care of by him. It's just that...... He has recently left his job. β
Aoki lowered his head and coughed, glanced towards the door, and said again:
"That's a shame. He is an old friend of mine, and literature is his greatest passion. Speaking of literature, isn't your editorial department engaged in the selection of literary awards?"
Massaji Miyane told the truth: "Are you talking about the 'Tree Planting Award'? Yes, the selection has come to an end. β
"Oh, so does that author have any plans to adapt the film and television work, and if so, who is he going to sell it to?"
Aoki leaned away from the back of the chair he was leaning on and looked at each other nervously.
Miyane took a sip of water and was about to answer, only to hear a few slight knocks on the door and a "sorry excuse me," and the waiter at the restaurant pushed into a food delivery cart and brought plates of hot and cold fried food to the table from the cart like water.
Aoki had no choice but to return to his sitting position, smiling at the waiter to express his gratitude.
Of course, it was no longer convenient for Massaji Miyone to continue, but he noticed that Aoki had picked up the cigarette case and placed it on the other side of the meal.
His heart began to secretly sweat for his words and deeds just now, and sure enough, everything was expected by Qingshan Gangchang, it was really perfect!
Because Aoyama analyzed it this way when he learned that Aoki found Miyone and wanted to meet him alone:
"Is Aoki finally dispatched? Sure enough, he didn't leave the forest...... As I expected, it was good......
Because Ryiichiro Imamura is the 'alliance partner' he used to work with in secret, but he's not sure if your side knows about this relationship, so he must mention Imamura to grasp your reaction at first.
When he and Imamura set tasks and transferred activity funds, they must have avoided the eyes and ears of others, so it is absolutely impossible for money to go through the ordinary transfer process. Although we do not know how the two men traded, it is likely that the belongings between the two men were disguised in advance, and the information obtained from the information obtained from the information was not the transfer of valuables, nor the ordinary envelopes or disguises containing the banknotes.
You can just describe the facts properly, don't leak the slightest hint of Imamura's secrets, and don't have any special response to any unusual actions he has done.
Aoki, the old fox, saw that you didn't react to the various 'codes' agreed upon by him and Imamura, so he won't go around in circles too much, and will naturally propose to you the original intention of this meeting with you - the adaptation copyright of "Oslo's Forest". You must make it clear to him that the publisher has a confidentiality agreement not to disclose it without permission, and rightly refuse to disclose to him inside information about the work published in any publication. It shouldn't be hard to do, right?
However, the other party will take your words as a hint that you are 'drawing the collar - putting forward conditions' to him, and at this time, he will gradually throw an olive branch to you. Of course, at this time, if you promise too much, it will naturally appear unprincipled, and it will also make the other party have the misunderstanding that 'the price is high', so you must 'calm down, stabilize your crotch, and don't panic when you pull it in your pants'......
It's your job not to agree, and it's his job to earn itβwe still need to verify his motivation for being so eager to get the right to adapt, but his general direction is not to run. You don't have to be polite to him at all - everyone knows that the more you don't get more than the thunder pool, it all depends on whether the cost of speculation is not in place, and whether you are paid for the risk......
Why are we going to eat, we should drink? Sensei saves him money!
As for the final conditions, you don't have to worry too much about the amount he gives, the key depends on how sincere he is in the preparation of the promise to you. If he pretends to be stupid, then reveal our bottom line to him sideways, guide him, and let him jump into the pit along the line we guided.
If he wanted to get a hold of it and stop, it would be even better. Directly told him that there are several other private TV stations crying and shouting to buy the adaptation rights of this work - of course, this is also a fact, 'Neon TV', 'TBS TV', 'TV Tokyo', and then the state-owned 'NHK Broadcasting Television', which one is not eyeing this award-winning new work? In short, let him know that at this moment, people's brains have snatched out their dog brains, and he is not afraid that he will not go in the direction of our 'carrots'!
β¦β¦β
At first, when Massashi Miyone heard this analysis, he didn't have any special feelings. But today, combined with Aoki's performance, he found that Aoyama's analysis was simply on point.
He even confidently concluded that Aoki's monetary benefits were all in the cigarette box, but he wasn't sure what was inside.
When the waiter finished serving the food and pushed the cart away and closed the door, Aoyama took the initiative to pour beer for Miyane and himself, and then raised his glass, ready to toast to the other party.
How did Miyane not know that the other party was waiting for the waiter to go away before he could speak, this person, the threshold is so fine that he has a heart on his bones!
"Let's toast to each other's happy cooperation!"
"Cheers!"
Miyone smiled and agreed, thinking about the eating and drinking principles analyzed by Aoyama, and drank the glass of wine in one gulp!
"Click!
Seeing this, Aoki happily dried his wine, and then looked at his watch with a grin as he continued to pour it.
Well, yes, it's almost time for him to mess me up!
"Miyane-san, I'm so happy to see you, I've made up your old friend! That's what I asked you just now......
"Aoki-san, the food here looks delicious......"
"Hey, look at me, patronizing and drinking...... Eat, eat, eat while it's hot!"
The corners of Aoki's mouth twitched inadvertently, and Miyane saw it all in his eyes. The joy in his heart, Qingshan's "Eating and Drinking Sutra" is indeed effective - at least to cure hunger!
He slowly sandwiched a slice of roast duck on top of the cake, carefully spread the white hair and green onion strips and cucumber strips, evenly spread the sweet noodle sauce, and painstakingly rolled the cake up as if it were a work of art.
At the same time, Aoki in the corner of his eyes looked so anxious that he almost wanted to roll the whole plate of roast duck for Miyane in that small cake, and watched as the other party slowly stuffed the small cake into his mouth and took a small bite.
He was in such a hurry, and before he knew it, sweat was wetting the collar of his shirt around his neck.
While Miyone was tasting the delicious food, he couldn't help but laugh in his heart - this guy Aoyama and Aoki both have the word "green" in their surnames, and he has a clear understanding of the other party's personality!
I really don't know if that guy studied psychology or not!
Well, it's delicious! Roast duck is delicious!
